India and Pakistan (Bangladesh)

India and Pakistan have a long and complicated history with each other. These two countries simultaneously became independent from Britain. When British India became independent, it was supposed to be divided into two parts. Areas consisting of 75% or more Muslims were to become Pakistan and the rest of the territory India

Summary

the division or partition ended up separating millions of Muslims. The state of Pakistan both east and west was formed on either side of the main India sub continent and east Pakistan was eventually renamed bangladesh. Both India and Pakistan laid claim on Kashmir and thus it became the main point of conflict and is still disputed to this day.
